Trade Alert: MD, CEO & Executive Director Of Brazilian Rare Earths Bernardo Sanchez da Veiga Has Sold Stock

Simply Wall St · 1d ago

We wouldn't blame Brazilian Rare Earths Limited (ASX:BRE) shareholders if they were a little worried about the fact that Bernardo Sanchez da Veiga, the MD, CEO & Executive Director recently netted about AU$25m selling shares at an average price of AU$4.00. That's a big disposal, and it decreased their holding size by 33%, which is notable but not too bad.

Brazilian Rare Earths Insider Transactions Over The Last Year

Notably, that recent sale by Bernardo Sanchez da Veiga is the biggest insider sale of Brazilian Rare Earths shares that we've seen in the last year. That means that even when the share price was slightly below the current price of AU$4.05, an insider wanted to cash in some shares. When an insider sells below the current price, it suggests that they considered that lower price to be fair. That makes us wonder what they think of the (higher) recent valuation. While insider selling is not a positive sign, we can't be sure if it does mean insiders think the shares are fully valued, so it's only a weak sign. We note that the biggest single sale was only 33% of Bernardo Sanchez da Veiga's holding.

Insider Ownership

For a common shareholder, it is worth checking how many shares are held by company insiders. Usually, the higher the insider ownership, the more likely it is that insiders will be incentivised to build the company for the long term. It's great to see that Brazilian Rare Earths insiders own 27% of the company, worth about AU$296m. I like to see this level of insider ownership, because it increases the chances that management are thinking about the best interests of shareholders.
